I got to host an interview with Melissa Errico for a Sondheim discussion Zoom group I'm a part of each month. It took a bit of work, but she had come here to Victoria for a concert, and I was a big fan and knew how closely she had worked with Sondheim and she had been chummy with me. Anyway, it turned out to be an absolute joy--we chatted for THREE hours when her manager I planned it out for warned that we would only have forty minutes. Of course it was mostly about her Sondheim work and musical theatre in general, but I had to tell her where I first saw her back when I was in Jr High--she said she NEVER gets asked about Central Park West and what a great time she had on it although she absolutely hated how her character was written (she also talked about how it created a life long friendship with John Barrowman who she's done some musical work with, though this wasn't long after people were starting to hammer down on Barrowman for his, umm, well basically enjoyment for flashing people he works with so that did briefly come up.)
